In a turbulent week for euro zone bond markets, yields witnessed their most significant weekly drop since November, driven by investor fears over potential U.S. tariffs and a looming economic slowdown.

Despite Germany's legislative approval of a major infrastructure fund, bond markets showed little reaction to these domestic developments, with anxiety over U.S. trade policies taking precedence.

As April approaches, analysts point to U.S. tariff decisions as a critical factor impacting global economic stability, steering investors towards the perceived safety of government bonds amid escalating market volatility.
